The Journey Of Karma Movie Review

Rating : 1.5/5

Story: A poor girl and her mother struggle to rise up in life as they are taken advantage of by men around them until a mysterious stranger comes up with a bizarre proposal.

Review: When Shakti Kapoor and Poonam Pandey play leading roles in a movie, you are bound to expect some sleaze. 'Journey of Karma' is no different with the exception that the sleazy here evokes laughter from the crowds, especially when Shakti Kapoor turns on his romance mode. While he plays the kind benefactor who wants to help Karma (Poonam Pandey) from the lecherous advances of her stepfather, he also wants to sleep with her, once. Why you ask? Because he loves her, that's why!

With an unrealistic plot where women murder and burn bodies with impunity, the small mercy is that it all gets over in 90 minutes. With nothing special in the music or the screenplay department, the film is largely a montage of cleavage shots, bathing scenes and truly cringe-evoking love making sequence with some actually decent urdu poetry thrown in. Alas, it's too late and you walk out of the theatre thinking of whether or not, the things you witnessed on screen, was a way of karma catching up with you.
